If he could turn back time, Elliot would not change a thing.He was not perfect.Avery's appearance in his life was what made him decide to try to critique, examine, and correct his own behavior.If it were not for their constant fights and misunderstandings, his feelings for her would not be this deeply rooted in his heart.…Tammy caught up to Avery outside of the restaurant and grabbed her arm."I can't believe you're married to Elliot Foster, Avery! This is massive news!" Tammy exclaimed as her head spun from the excitement of the evening's events.Avery, on the other hand, felt like there was a lump stuck in her throat."You saw it yourself. He's just messing around with me.""Jun said that he just wanted to help you but was too embarrassed about it," Tammy said.She did not think that things were that bad to warrant such a reaction from Avery."Let's head back inside, Avery! We should let him explain…"Avery shook off Tammy's grip. Her tone was determined and cool as

"What about me?" Avery said as she placed the cup of tea on the kitchen counter, then made her way back to the room. "He's never treated me with respect, not even just for a day.""The two of you are from completely different worlds. It's understandable for him to be a little stand-offish toward you," Laura said. "Forget about his past. Focus on who he is right now and who he will be in the future…"Avery raised her brows, puzzled, and asked, "Why are you speaking up for him? Do you think he could suddenly find some kindness in his heart to let me keep the children?"Laura fell silent."I'm sure he has his reasons for not wanting children," she said after a brief pause. "I think the fact that he's willing to swallow his pride and come here to apologize to you is a sign that he does care for you."Avery covered her ears with her hands and said, "I'm going to bed. My head hurts."Seeing her adamant refusal, Laura had nothing else to say.She walked out of the room and planned to g

Avery's face was wet. Even though the water was warm, she felt chilly. "Chelsea! What are you doing!" Charlie got up immediately, grabbed Chelsea's arm, and pulled her aside."Charlie! Don't stop me! I'm going to teach her a lesson tonight!" Chelsea's eyes were red, and her sharp voice pierced through the entire private room.Charlie snapped, "Have you lost your mind?!"Chelsea had never been yelled at in public by Charlie, and she boiled with rage. Then, she pushed away Charlie's hand, trying to attack Avery again.Splash! A glass of juice was splashed on her face.Avery slammed the empty cup on the table, and she looked at the messy-faced Chelsea, and said, "If you want to bully me, at least make sure you're capable of doing so."The crowd instantly fell into silence, and everyone's eyes turned to Avery and Chelsea. Avery was only splashed with a glass of warm water, and her face was still clean and clear but just wet. However, Chelsea was drenched in red watermelon juic

Avery did not return to Elliot's mansion, nor did she visit the sick Elliot. This time, Avery was astonishingly cruel. Besides her, another person also had also treated Elliot ruthlessly. Ben. As Avery had never returned to Elliot's mansion, nor did she show any concern for him as he lay in the hospital bed, Ben would come every day and give him daily updates on Avery's daily activities. For example, today Avery had gone to Trust Capital and had a great morning with Charlie, or they had visited an art exhibition and had lunch together. It did not matter if the two of them had gone to an art exhibition or not, and it did not matter if they really had lunch together. What truly mattered was that Elliot must be angered, as that was the only thing guaranteeing that he cooperated. If Elliot was still sick, he could not take revenge.Ben used his understanding of Elliot to make him live in misery every day. Eventually, Elliot's condition began to improve under the control of medicat

Elliot had lost a lot of weight, and his originally well-defined facial features appeared more profound and elegant. What was he doing here? Was he the mysterious guest?Lucy left after finishing the task.Watching Lucy leave, Avery realized that the mysterious guest was indeed Elliot.Was he not bedridden? Was he feeling better already?Avery stood still, not saying a word or approaching him. "Mr. Foster, is this lady the person you're looking for?" The person in charge asked Elliot.Elliot nodded. "Thank you.""You're welcome," said the person in charge in a pleasing tone.Elliot walked toward Avery, looking at her with indifferent eyes, and said, "Let's talk.""Talk? What's there to talk about?" Avery lowered her gaze, her tone was cold. Elliot was not in a hurry or annoyed. Instead, he took her arm with his big hand and pulled her away. There were many people backstage, and it was uncertain how they would talk about them.Leaving backstage, Elliot led her through
